"For every 1% unemployment goes up 40,000 people die"

Have no idea how true the stat is but how many people have died from corona vs the economic collapse?

Some estimates were putting the number above 100k as a result.

Also, could get Margot Robbie to explain instead?

It's not impossible to imagine. Depression, anxiety, overdoses, suicides...the mental health aspect of people's livelihoods being ripped away from them at a moment's notice with no end in sight could easily trigger irrational behavior resulting in deaths.

Also poor people die younger.

This has created a lot more poor people.
